Santa Muerte, or "Saint Death," is a folk saint venerated in Mexico and parts of the U.S., representing death in a way that’s deeply intertwined with both reverence and protection.

Devotees believe she offers guidance, healing, and safety, often turning to her for help in matters of life and death, especially when traditional religious routes feel inaccessible.

The imagery of Santa Muerte typically includes a skeletal figure dressed in robes, sometimes holding symbols like a scythe or globe.

Her followers range from ordinary people seeking help with personal struggles to those involved in more marginalized or dangerous lifestyles.
